  • Abstract
    There is an assumption that VR development has not reached its maturity, in comparison to development of WIMP based applications. This essay studies some important results related to WIMP and VR development during the last 20 years, in particular in the fields of User Interface Management Systems (UIMS) and VR Frameworks, which could be an inspiration and also a guide for new research. In particular, we propose a change in the way we pursue research in this field, in order to allow the community to easily build on top of previous results.
